Finally, he thawed! Or should I say melted?
Was it Buta or the louu ka keeda in Nishit's ear that played Cupid? Well, the specifics don't matter as much as the fact that, after a considerable amount of time, they finally succumbed to their feelings 😆
Just when Kirti was on the verge of giving up on "them," Nishit resurfaced, whispering, "the bug is still there...buzzing." It was both exasperating and heart-rending to witness Nishit wanting Kirti to stay away from him, yet secretly desiring her presence. Despite his mixed signals, Kirti chose to stay because she understood his unspoken words, having developed that ability over time. Today, Kirti's words of apology and comfort struck a chord because they were not only sincere but also stemmed from her personal experiences. It's one thing to empathize with someone's situation, but it's another to actually feel it. Her confession must have mirrored his own, bringing a sense of relief as Nishit realized he wasn't alone in the attraction and confusion.
The two have accepted & acknowledged each others feelings at last! There is 18 years of catching up to do and then there's also their social status situation. I am curious to know about many things that happened in the past, particularly what transpired on that fateful Diwali night, which served as the primary catalyst for their fallout.
Loved reading this chapter GN! 🤗Haven't listened to the song yet, will do in a bit.
